Featuring Joani Bye, Nadine States, Amanda Dean and Leslie Harris (that’s me) and backed by Rob Montgomery’s stellar band, it’s a fantastic evening of music that you won’t forget anytime soon. It would be SO cool to see you there.

Happy Summer my live music loving friends!

We’ve got lots of stuff going on that we hope you’ll come and join us for so without further ado, here we go:

This Thursday Jul 19th, Harris&DeBray play One20 Pub in North Delta from 6:30-9:30.

On Saturday Jul 21st, Harris&DeBray play “Plug In To South Hill” – an Eco and Science Fair for the whole family on the main stage from noon til 2pm. All the details are on the poster – I think it’s gonna be really fun and informative. You can test drive an electric car while listening to some live blues! Free admission, food, shopping – the works. I really hope to see you there. We’ll be set up in the parking lot just West of Fraser at 46th. Follow the sound.

On Friday Jul 27th, I’m super excited to play Frankie’s Jazz Club with “Ladies Sing the Blues”! That’s Joani Bye, Nadine States, Amanda Dean and myself, backed up by Rob Montgomery and his stellar band. $20 cover charge and you definitely need reservations cuz this will sell out. If you’ve never been to Frankie’s, it’s a lovely room with excellent sound and sightlines for the stage from all the tables. Delicious food, full bar, big stage – it’s wonderful! Really hope to see you there! 604.688.6368 for reservations.

Lots more coming up in August but I’ll leave you with that for now. Keep getting out there and supporting all the live music that you can in Vancouver – we need you!!
